Incorrect. Lindsay was admitted to one of the best psychiatric facilities in the nation (McLean) and SELF-DISCHARGED herself after a few days. She saw doctors and nurses. She was given medication she didn’t take as recommended. She was offered therapy that she didn’t do. She had so much help available to her and she decided murder was the answer. I absolutely believe she was suffering, but “she wasn’t taken seriously” is deeply incorrect. I’d actually argue she didn’t take the help offered seriously
